Indoor Schools Competitions

The Lady Taverners indoor competition is designed for School teams to enter as an introductory format of cricket for girls to enjoy. The competition is played in sports halls with a semi-soft ball and does not require any form of protective padding. The competition is 8-a-side and has modified but simple rules to ensure games are short and fast paced. Some of the key differences are:

Runs are scored by batters by hitting the walls of the hall – if the batters choose to run also then additional runs are scored.
Games tend to be no more than 8 overs long – within this every player must bowl one over.
Batters are to retire on 20 runs if they are not out before this time, but can return if all other team members are out.

Within Gloucestershire we run local festivals to determine which teams are then invited to County finals. The County winner progresses through to the Regional finals. Should the team then win the Regional round they will be invited to the National Finals – which is traditionally played at Lords.

Lady Taverners competitions are run at both Under 13 and Under 15 age groups.
